The Gift of Forgiveness
by Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt
I remember the exact moment when I knew I wanted to delve deep into forgiveness. I was standing in the parking lot of a local restaurant I love when, out of the blue, up walked the girl I’d once called my best friend.
This has been an interesting read. The stories within are unique. Some are incredibly inspiring. Some are interesting. I appreciate how this book illustrates that we can come to forgiveness in all kinds of unique ways, and that forgiveness is not one size fits all.
Definitely check back later for my full review!

Happy Friday! My first line is from “The Jerusalem Assassin” by Joel C. Rosenberg:
“They were coming, and he knew they were coming, and he knew why – they were coming to kill him and to kill the president and to kill anyone else who got in their way. They were coming to settle scores.”

That’s a really interesting opening! Makes me curious what the ex-bestie did or what happened between them. This sounds like the perfect book for the time, especially. Who couldn’t use a bit of uplifting reading?

I’ll definitely be watching for your review!
This week on my blog I shared the first line from One Little Lie by Colleen Coble but I’m just about to dig into Silent Shadows by Natalie Walters so I’ll share that first line here: “Pecca Gallegos never thought she’d be turning down a marriage proposal–much less four of them.” Hope you are doing well and can enjoy some quality reading time during all this social distancing!

I’m okay. I’m a little up and down but been doing a lot of talking on the phone and video chatting and such and that helps.

I will have to read this in the future. I’m not quite ready yet even though God keeps giving me gentle nudges and forceful shoves. But I have to, and I will.

When you’re ready and in your time. God knows where you’re at. If you rush forgiveness thinking you have to get it done, it won’t be real forgiveness. 🙂❤
